Subject:Contract Amendment with MGE Engineering, Inc., to extend termination date of agreement, Countywide.
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
the Board of Supervisors.
Since the original consulting service agreement was executed, the Consultant provided on-call structural engineering
services on multiple projects. While most of these projects have been completed, the Jersey Island Road Bridge
Repair and Clifton Court Road Bridge Repair projects are on-going projects that require Consultant’s engineering
services beyond the Agreement’s November 5, 2015 expiration. In order to allow these projects to continue without
disruption, the contract is being extended solely for the completion of these two projects. The Consultant needs to
complete the project plans and specifications for these projects. Construction for the Jersey Island Road Bridge
Repair and the Clifton Court Road Bridge Repair is anticipated to occur next year. No increase in the contract amount
is being sought.
Approval of this Consulting Services Agreement Amendment No. 1 will allow the Consultant to continue providing
structural engineering consulting services to the Jersey Island Road Bridge Repair and Clifton Court Road Bridge
Repair projects through December 31, 2016.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the contract amendment is not approved, the Jersey Island Road Bridge Repair and Clifton Court Road Bridge
Repair projects will experience delays and added costs as The County solicits for new professional services which
will duplicate previous work.
